Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Location is great, but apartment overall needs improvement

Pros

Location - close to subways and central park

Cons

The floors are super thin you can hear everything the upstairs neighbors are doing The super doesn't understand or speak English and it's extremely difficult to communicate with him so if there's any problem within the apartment he'd ask you to talk to the super directly knowing fairly well the super would not help you because of the language barrier Basement is dirty and full of rodents and cockroaches
